EAP Supervisor's Training covers the basics of supervision and emphasizes the role of management in preventing many attitude, behavior and performance problems. Supervisors and managers learn how to recognize the "troubled employee," how to constructively confront behavior and performance problems, and how to develop a winning strategy for resolving performance-based problems.

Workplace Violence Prevention demonstrates to participants how the County’s Workplace Violence and Whistle-blower Policies work together with sound management practice to help prevent violence in the workplace. Participants learn about the continuum of violence and the profile of the violent perpetrator, as well as how to defuse violence and report violent incidents.

Substance Abuse/Reasonable Suspicion acquaints participants with the County's Drug Free Workplace Policy, identifies sub-standard performance indicators and situations in which testing may be appropriate, and spells out the appropriate personnel actions to assess, counsel and refer for treatment or rehabilitation.

Drug Free Workplace describes the differences between use, abuse, and addiction and helps participants understand what addiction is and is not. It also teaches the behavioral indicators of early, middle and late stage addiction, as well as the consequences of addiction, what help is available, and how to intervene.

Managers and supervisors can also register for Management Basics: Soft Skills 101 through the Learning Center.
